Rat (1996, 2008)
You’re intelligent, hardworking and ambitious, but you’re not that great at making plans for the future, so make that a goal for this year. Your best matches are dragons and monkeys. Your element is water and your lucky number is 6.
Ox (1997, 2009)
You’re patient and strong, but you can be stubborn, too! This year, try lightening up a bit – everyone needs to laugh at themselves once in a while! Your best matches are roosters and snakes. Your element is water and your lucky number is 8.
Tiger (1986, 1998)

This year, make it your goal to be a better problem-solver. Your best matches are dogs and horses. Your element is wood and your lucky numbers are 1 and 3.
Rabbit (1987, 1999)
You’re sensitive, creative and very lucky! You’ve got a great nose for a bargain! You’re also a good listener, but you can be a bit of a dreamer, too. In 2009, try being more in touch with reality. Your best matches are rams and pigs. Your element is wood and your lucky numbers are 3 and 4.
Dragon (1988, 2000)
You’re confident, honest and energetic. You’re a natural-born leader, but because you aren’t always completely honest with yourself and others, you tend to get into trouble with people. This year, start telling only the truth, and try sticking closer to a regular routine, too. Your best matches are rabbits and monkeys. Your element is wood and your lucky number is 9.
Snake (1989, 2001)
You’re so smart! You’re also really good at making guesses about things, which means you don’t often need to take advice from others. You’re also a really reliable friend and have a great sense of humour – but you can be a bit tight with cash. Remember, saving is important, but splurging for special occasions is OK, too! Your best matches are oxen and roosters. Your element is fire and your lucky numbers are 3 and 9.
Horse (1990, 2002)
You work hard and play hard, too. Easygoing and calm, it takes a lot to get you angry… but if you do get mad, watch out! Try putting some water on that hot temper of yours this year! Your best matches are tigers and dogs. Your element is fire and your lucky numbers are 3 and 9.
Ram (1991, 2003)
Ram, sheep, goat… whatever you call yourself, you’re gentle, caring and compassionate. You bring a sense of peace to every situation you wander into. But your tendency to wander off-subject and lose your focus are points to work on this year. Your best matches are rabbits and pigs. Your element is fire and your lucky numbers are 8 and 9.
Monkey (1992, 2004)
You’re cheeky, charming and mischievous. Your smarts and naughty nature tend to get you in trouble – but you’re usually able to talk your way out of it! You don’t tell the truth often enough though, so people have a hard time trusting you. Try sticking with the old saying “Honesty is the best policy” in 2009. Your best matches are dragons and rats. Your element is metal and your lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
Rooster (1993, 2005)
You’re extremely organized and a hard worker, too. But you tend to come off as showy and arrogant – you’re great, but try not to blow your own horn too often this year! Your best matches are oxen and snakes. Your element is metal and your lucky numbers are 6 and 8.
Dog (1994, 2006)
You’re loyal, brave and caring – just like your four-legged BFF. You tend to worry a lot about the world’s problems; this year, start doing something about it and volunteer for a good cause! Your best matches are tigers and horses. Your element is metal and your lucky number is 8.
Pig (1995, 2007)
You love good company and nice clothes. You’re quick to lose your temper, but you usually calm down pretty fast – or, at least, you’ll try working on that this year! Your best matches are rabbits and rams. Your element is water and your lucky numbers are 6 and 7.
